And this immense fortune was made
out of a weekly story paper. 1t is

fiction. Bonner is not the only man
who has grown rich in this line Of

The Atmosphere of Love
DIR. Joseph Parker Menefee

Was born in Scott county, KY, July
81, 1925, and died in Sedalia, Mo-,
Nov. 81, 1887, in his 62nd year. At
the age of IA he came with his family
to Missouri, which, in the main, has
been his home ever since, though ne
also lived in California, Minnesota and
Iowa. He was a successful business
man before stricken down with dis
ease, and he used his money freely
and joyously for the glory of God and
the salvation of man. No worthy
sufferer ever appealed to him in vain
for help when it was In his power to
respond. The church treasury had in
him one of Its most liberal friends for
"current expenses" to say nothing OF
various special contributions. He often
paid 5000 year. His genial life and
warm, large heart made him favo'
rite with bis neighbors. In his home
he was distinguished as an obedien'
and dutiful son, a faithful husband,
and fond and indulgent father.
When about twenty-one years OF
age he became a member of the
Christian church, but soon fell away,
and for many years lived the life of 9
"back-slider," but in 1863 he returned
to the church, and was faithful til
death.
